COMMENTARY: Regarding actor Brad Pitt’s recent claim in support of the legalization of gay marriage

Brad Pitt

Actor Brad Pitt is incorrect in stating (in support of homosexual marriage) that it is a “Constitutional right [for someone] to marry the person they love, no matter what state they inhabit”.

First, same-sex marriage is an oxymoron. Secondly, the definition of marriage would then have to include such abnormalities as pedophilia, incest, adultery and polygamy.

In effect, “marriage” would be rendered meaningless which is what Pitt is really advocating. This is especially expressed in Pitt’s own real-life decision to live-in-sin with partner Angelina Jolie and to adopt, with her, several foreign children with whom the two cannot even communicate without an interpreter.

His own example is not expressive of the natural creativeness, cohesiveness and bonding which is essential to the authentic family unit.

Ultimately, Pitt confuses love with lust – a perennial trade mark of the beautiful people in Hollywood.

As the basis expression of man’s social nature, marriage can only be understood as the lawful union of one man and one woman to the exclusion of all others.

    OMG! The person who wrote this article is a complete idiot!
    first of all, homosexuality does NOT equal pedophilia!
    secondly WTF?! “…Pitt’s own real-life decision to live-in-sin with partner Angelina Jolie and to adopt, with her, several foreign children with whom the two cannot even communicate without an interpreter.” 8-O 8-O 8-O 8-O 8-O

    Ps. It IS unconstitutional to ban same-sex marriage. It’s only a matter of time until ALL states recognize and legalize same-sex marriages. Slowly but surely it’s coming. And i cant wait to see all the religious freaks s#!t their pants! :lol: :lol: :lol:

      Finally an intelligent person posting on here. I posted something in similar vein; DNO refuses to put my comment up. Critical, educated comments seem to be most likely to not be posted; people cursing and screaming in caps lock are happily posted, however. Ah, well.

      @pre-med. you need to go back to school. Because you are the dumb one – like i said before – while you are at authorising gay marriage – legalise people with animals (bestiality)- allow them to marry to, allow (pedophilia) grown ups to be with and marry little children – legalise(polygamy) each gender to marry more than one person – allow every sin and criminal activity to roam free on this planet. legalise everything – let’s see what would happen. foolish people.

      Pre-Med: There is a connection between homosexuality and pedophillia. Stats in the USA show about 3% – 4% of the population is homosexual. Taking this into consideration it is obvious an inappropriate number of sex crimes against children are committed by homosexuals. Here is an example. In the Catholic Church most of the priests are hetrosexuals. But it is the smaller number of homosexual priests who are molesting children. In the USA, Canada, and throughout Europe parishes are being sued for millions of dollars by the families of little boys who were molested or by men who were molested when they were younger. We’ve known of parishes that have had to sell off large portions of their real estate to settle cases. Again note: it is the homosexual priests who are the pedophiles committing these sex crimes against young boys NOT the hetrosexual priests who are violating little girls even though there are more hetro priests. Did you know there are homosexual organizations lobbying governments to have the age of consent lowered OR eliminated? One of these organizations publishes a magazine. They devoted an entire issue to the joys of pedophillia. One homosexual organization has the motto “Sex By Eight Or It’s Too Late.” Years ago a little shoe-shine boy was snatched off a street corner in Toronto where he was trying to earn a few dollars to take home to his immigrant family. After an intense police search he was found dead in a garbage bag on the roof of a massage palour. An investigation revealled he had been severely raped, and drowned in a kitchen sink by a group of homosexuals. Three “gay” men were arrested miles away trying to leave the province. It gets worse! A homosexual newspaper paid for their legal defence. Unconstitutional to ban same sex marriage? Only if you read into the constitution more than what is actually there OR interpret it to meam something it was not intended to mean. Trust me, the people who wrote your constitution were not approving same sex marriage! The good news is that God can – and will – save homosexuals and give them a new life.

    In this world nothing is wrong nowadays. Once the organisations and/or individuals could lobby strongly, put forward their case and convince others that the actions they are engaged in are justified, so be it.

    People decide to produce and sell cocaine to make a living, no problem. He making his money, others are getting their share, is OK. Some decide to kill, maim, steal, destroy because somebody or some obstacle is in their way, is OK. Once an excuse could be made for so doing, is OK.

    Morality, ethics, honesty, ‘family’ values are being deleted from our way of life. Men sexing other men, penetrating his anus which was designed by the creator for expelling excreta, But that’s normal. No problem. Women sexing other women, No problem. Is OK.

    The horrendous Slave Trade and Slavery, the dehumanising effects of capitalism, calculated impoverishment of communities of millions of people, condoned by many countries, organisations, individuals, big business. Nothing wrong. That’s OK. Crimes are committed. Criminals are allowed to walk the streets free. No problems. That’s OK. God is good and looking over his people. Case close.

    DNO needs to filter out some of these ridiculous commentaries. It’s one thing to not agree with something and make an argument to that effect, but this “Paul Kokoski” just spewed crap out.

        The universe is over 13.7 billion years old. Earth is approximately 4.6 billion years old. The solar system is one of thousands of systems of planets in the Milky Way galaxy; there are billions upon billions of galaxies, each unfathomably far apart from each other, in the universe. And there may be other universes.

        And you really, seriously, honestly believe a microscopic planet like Earth is not “on fire” because of religion? Expand your mind, Alas. The Earth is less than a grain of sand on a beach that might as well be infinite. The Earth is not central or particularly important to the universe at large.

    Paul, if you are going to write something called a commentary, you should at least do so in a manner that suggests you have the slightest knowledge about your topic.

    Your argument about same-sex marriage being an oxymoron is not explained, which is your first (though not fatal) flaw; your main flaw is your ridiculous argument that same-sex marriage is equivalent to pedophilia, incest, adultery, and polygamy. I can only imagine that you do not in fact know what any of those four words mean and simply expected that your audience, so largely against homosexuality already, would praise you as a genius without taking a second to see how poor and ludicrous the argument you’re making actually is.

    If you were trying to write a real commentary, you would begin by defining all of your terms. Had you done that, you would realize that same-sex unions/marriage is nothing more than two consenting homosexual adults in a union or legal marriage (since I imagine you would be against both). Under this definition, which differs from heterosexual union/marriage only in the sexes and sexual orientation of the concerned parties, it should therefore be impossible for anyone with a dictionary to therefore compare same-sex marriage to pedophilia, incest, adultery, or polygamy.

    Pedophilia, since you appear to not know what the word means, refers to a sexual desire for children. It is not even a word denoting marriage of any sort; it is a word for a desire. But what is more relevant is that it is a desire for children: i.e., for beings who CANNOT consent to sex. This lack of consent is partly legal; it is mainly because children are not emotionally or even physically developed enough to consent to sexual intercourse. Therefore, to speak of legalizing pedophilia after same-sex marriage is absurd in the highest degree.

    Polygamy is marriage between more than two people: a man with two or three wives, for instance. The most basic mathematics will demonstrate that this is the exact opposite of monogamy. Polygamy has nothing to do with sexual orientation at all, and to equate it with same-sex marriage is bewildering. At any rate, it may be worth noting that a Christian denomination, the Mormons, powerfully advocates for polygamy, and Muslim_Always has provided the rest of the biblical info below.

    As for incest and adultery: incest is sex between family members. If same-sex couples are not related, it’s not incest. Incest, moreover, is biologically unsafe because of how genes end up being “mixed” (to simplify it). It has nothing in of itself to do with same-sex marriage. Adultery is concerned with extramarital affairs, so I really have no clue what you’re going for there.

    In short, nothing you’ve written makes a shred of sense, and if you disagree with that after taking the time to read what I wrote, well, I just don’t know what to say. Either come with a new argument, sir, or refrain from posting such meaningless things until you’re better informed.

      Thanks for posting this! you said a lot of the things I wanted to say, but I’m too exhausted to write… :lol:

      “I can only imagine that you do not in fact know what any of those four words mean and simply expected that your audience, so largely against homosexuality already, would praise you as a genius without taking a second to see how poor and ludicrous the argument you’re making actually is.” SPOT ON!

    WHO Ever is PAUL Kokoski, has he by any chance READ THE CONSTITUTIONAL LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND UNDERSTAND THEIR MEANING?

    Because one don’t just read and pick up sense out of the constitution, it must be read in such a way that you break it down to understand. If he so believe that Mr. Pitt is wrong for making such a statement, then I guess Paul was around writing the constitution with the founding fathers.

    COME AGAIN PAUL!

      Not quite Muslim, you seem to have forgotten the new testament. Albeit, I very much agree with the last part of your comment. All I can say is that homosexuality is unnatural and of the devil himself. NO WAY CAN TWO MEN OR WOMEN CONCEIVE CHILDREN NATURALLY!!!.

    Paul, I assume you are Catholic. If you call polygyny abnormal then why do you believe in Abraham, Jacob and most of the other prophets in the altered bible?

    In the Old Testament there are laws that support polygamy, it’s allowance and inheritance for women who were in polygamous relationships. If the bible is “inspired” why would God reveal these principles to Moses? The contradictions are obvious.

    Back to the issue of homosexuality. Paul you have not done any justice to the topic. Were you writing a comment or an article?

    Paul, the reality is these gays are gonna come out. Sodom and Gomorrah will be in full effect in the last days. This is what happens when one rules by the law of man and secularism. Man will always choose the laws that suits him most especially those in power.
